Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the fastest time to complete the Indianapolis 500 race: 2hr 41min 18.404sec (299.307km/h 185.981mph) by Arie Luyendyk (Netherlands) driving a Lola-Chevrolet.
As a part of the brand's centennial celebration, GM Korea recently launched the online Chevrolet Biggest Bow Tie Challenge, which sought Chevrolet customers willing to take part in a World Record attempt.
Owners of Chevrolet products, including the Spark, Aveo, Cruze, Orlando and Captiva, created a mosaic measuring 209.9 meters in length and 67.6 meters in width with their vehicles. The design was recognized as the Largest Car Logo.

Chevrolet owners who helped set the record were joined by their families at a dinner party and concert featuring celebrities, including singers Kim Jang-hoon, Cul-two, Kim Jin-pyo and G.NA.
